pests APHID!

I think Pam meant she ordered some...

Are Aphids really this prevalent? How concerned should I be if I haven't seen any yet? Or, do they typically arrive once planted outside?

You all have me obsessively and compulsively checking my plants everyday, sometimes twice a day. :lol:

I've been having aphid nightmares, and some have come true:(
 
For me aphids are only a problem with indoor plants. Once they are outdoors there seems to be enough natural predators to take care of them
 
right over my head... :lol: when pepperfreak said aphids, I read lady bugs... :doh:

*lets out a big sigh*

Cool, I only have a little over a month to go..........
 
looks like my nagas have another friend...may be no friend to the lady bugs, but still a friend and hunter of the leaves....a little wolf spider has taken up residence in my grow box....I assume he eats aphids too..

Agree on that Pam....when I snapped the picture, I swear she looked right at me...you know, did that little shift move they do so well...

we will have to make sure and point this pic out to IGG when he gets back from his road trip...wonder where they are?

That is a cute baby :rolleyes: But seriously, that is the same, Wolfe Spider, that was the spider that I almost stepped on in the shower that I already shared about...LOL...What memories.
 
Aphids are back....

Well, the aphids are back and I have not treated with anything in a long time....time to get the lady bug gang bang going...off to my local nursery...the LBs have a feast awaiting them...
